THIS FRIDAY! Spring Food Truck Fundraiser

Join us on the back field for a festive spring evening with the whole Winnona Park Crew! Grab a taco from Tex's Tacos, a burger from Mix'd UP Burgers, or cool off with a Pelican's Snow Cone -- with a portion of every purchase going right back to our school. Try your luck in our raffle for amazing summer camp packages from OODAZU, Color Wheel, Snapology, and Camp Scene. And don't forget to stop by for face painting! It's a night of food, fun, and community you won't want to miss.


FINAL CALL FOR YEARBOOK PICTURES

We are still in need of candid photos for several classes for the yearbook. If you've got a great shot from a field trip, a classroom moment, or a school event, we want it! Upload your photos to our Google Drive and drop them in the most appropriate folder. A few clicks from you could mean a memory that lasts a lifetime for our students.


JOIN THE PTA BOARD -- WE NEED YOU!

As we look ahead to next year, our PTA still has openings for VP and Secretary, along with several committee roles. If you've ever thought about getting more involved, this is your moment. It takes a full Crew to run this ship, and your time and talent matter. No experience necessary -- just enthusiasm and a love for this community. Interested? Fill out the board interest form.
